Abstract
This invention provides a method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display, including the steps of forming an orientation film on a major surface of each of first and second substrates, performing an orientation treatment for the orientation films, performing an orientation relaxation treatment for a portion of the orientation film of each of the first and second substrates, thereby forming a first region and a second region whose orientation degree is smaller than the orientation degree of the first region, arranging the first and second substrates so that the first and second regions of the first substrate and the second and first regions of the second substrate oppose each other, respectively, and that a liquid crystal material has a splay deformation, and injecting the liquid crystal material between the first and second substrates thus arranged to oppose each other.
